Default Won't turn off with accelerator pedal, but will with key

I have an ST 480. When I let up off the gas, it keeps running very very slowly. It will usually die in a bit. The cable to the carburetor from the governor generally seems loose enough. I tried moving the governor spring to the other notch to make it tighter. Did not really work. It will turn off immediately when I turn the ignition key off.

Is this an accelerator micro switch problem? It seems like the problem is that it is still getting gas..but is there supposed to be a kill engine switch from the micro? But I thought the micro only controlled the solenoid. The solenoid is off when the accelerator is off.

Help!

The microswitch is connected in series with the key switch. They both have to make contact to run. It sounds like yours is stuck.
